Rebuild of interior wall at 16 E 17th Street, Apt. 5

It is rare to find in a person an unrelentingly meticulous attention to detail combined with an easy-going temperament. To find that in a contractor is priceless. As an architect specializing in wall construction, I wanted to find a contractor who would, at the very least, give a look to my detailed drawings of air-tight and insulated interior wall construction into this atypical 1898 building of steel and exterior copper cladding. The details required exacting precision around 9' newly-installed aluminum replacement windows, where the cladding of the original wood window frame with solid red oak molding had to be done with virtually no allowance for tolerance. From the initial meeting, Nick demonstrated that he had not only reviewed my drawings but identified key coordination points with his work and plumbing work for the reinstallation of the radiator and electrical work for reinstallation of automated shades. I depended on him fully to keep me updated, as I was not on site for most of the work. As the project commenced and proceeded, he kept me informed on almost a daily basis, and he made sure to consult me on situations that arose requiring decisions that would impact the aesthetics of the final outcome. When the plumber I had booked for the radiator work unexpectedly fell through, he immediately solved the problem within an hour, calling upon a master plumber within his network, and the result was a beautifully reinstalled radiator. He also coordinated with the automated shade installer with great professionalism. As a very detail-oriented architect, I am extremely pleased with the aesthetics and performance of the final wall installation. The red-oak window surrounds are beautifully level and stained. The windows operate beautifully, and the shades are coordinated wonderfully. In fact, it is done so well that it is hard to imagine that the wall was ever any other way. I would also like to add that Dawn-Marie Dillon handled the logistics of the cumbersome insurance paperwork and contract issues with utmost timeliness, and to have such a well-coordinated office operation was of great comfort to us in the time-crunch that we were in. I recommend Nick Knacks Creative Interiors without hesitation and will be recommending them to those who ask me for a great NYC contractor in the future.

Another amazing review :
Working with Nick was a great experience from start to finish. He was especially attentive to all our concerns and helped transform our bathroom. It looks great!! Nick is super professional and a genuinely nice person with a great sense of design. Communication was great from day to day. And we were able to live in the apartment for most of the time that the renovation was going on, which was important to us. Also, Nick and the folks he worked with kept the work area and the rest of the apartment super clean all through the project. Nick is a gem and we'd love to work with him in the future!
